  • 220. 5 INSTANT MENTAL FIXES FOR YOUR MISSED SHORT PUTTING WOES
    Apr 30 2026
    https://www.siegergolf.com/online-courses There’s nothing in golf quite as frustrating—or as costly—as missed short putts. The kind you know you should make. The kind that linger in your mind long after the round is over. And yet, for most golfers, these misses aren’t about poor technique—they’re about what’s happening mentally in the moment of truth. In this week’s episode of The Golfing Mind, we’re cutting through the noise and going straight to the real issue: your thinking under pressure. Because when you stand over a short putt, it’s not your stroke that breaks down first—it’s your clarity, your commitment, and your belief. Today, I’m sharing five instant mental fixes that you can apply immediately. No swing changes, no complicated routines—just simple, powerful adjustments that will help you putt with more confidence, more freedom, and far greater consistency. We’ll explore how indecision creeps in, why too many thoughts destroy feel, and how your expectations may be quietly working against you. Most importantly, you’ll learn how to bring calm, focus, and total commitment to every short putt you face. Because make no mistake—hole more short putts, and your scores will change fast.

  • 219. MASTERS 2026, A QUICK REVIEW OF FIVE PLAYERS
    Apr 23 2026
    This week on The Golfing Mind, we take a deep dive into one of the most compelling tournaments in the game — the Masters — and, more importantly, what it can teach us. This isn’t just a recap of who played well and who didn’t. It’s a focused review of five players whose performances offer powerful lessons for every golfer, regardless of level. From composure under extreme pressure to the ability to recover from setbacks, from disciplined course management to unwavering commitment to each shot, these players demonstrate that success at Augusta is as much mental as it is technical. We’ll break down what they did, how they thought, and—crucially—how you can apply those same principles to your own game. Because the truth is, you don’t need to hit it like a tour professional to think like one. Whether it’s handling the emotional swings of a major championship Sunday or maintaining clarity when everything is on the line, the Masters provides a blueprint for better golf between the ears. So, if you want to sharpen your mindset, lower your scores, and play with more control and confidence, stay with us. There’s a lot to learn. https://www.siegergolf.com/online-courses Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
